Proceeding contribution from Baroness Thomas of Winchester (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 30 June 2009. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

I am grateful to the Minister for that explanation. The noble Lord, Lord Taylor, put his finger on one of the $64,000 questions in this part of the Bill, but we might come to one or two more on the next amendment. This was the original probing amendment, and I fully accept what the Minister said—that there could be some unintended consequences. I shall study what he says and, in the mean time, beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 127 withdrawn.
